Can a collection agency garnish your wages even if you are making payments with a debt consolidation agency?
Hello, 1. Debt Consolidation takes only those debt which are current. 2. This means, the collection agency that has your debt is not at all related to the Debt Consolidation program. Thus they are free to take any action against you. My suggestion, If it is a small debt, work out something with them and pay them off. If it is a huge debt, consider Debt Settlement. Thanks! This is not legal advice :)

Both methods have advantages and disadvantages that are worth researching ahead of time. If your creditor accepts the settlement, you only have to pay the agreed-upon percentage of the debt.
My account balance with American express has been turned over to a collection agency. Does American express over a reduced payoff as a settlement?
when a company "sells" a bad debt to a collection agency it is at a fraction of the total bill due. So, if you have a bad debt to American express in the amount of $10,000, more than likely it was sold to the collection agency for 2-3000. The remainder can be written off by American Express on the taxes that are filed by the company. What you can do is contact the collection agency after saving 40% of the debt (or 4000) and offer to negotiate a settlement. If you settle for $4000.00 you are saving $6000 and the collection agency is making 50-100% profit on the bad debt. This what the debt settlement companies do - no sense in paying the settlement company fees when we can negotiate ourselves.
